question about ISO 8859-15 support in mail, bug ?

[Pascal Chevrel]

Hello,

When I use the EURO letter in an html page, I have no problem defining the page as ISO 8859-15 and using alt+0164 or the locale currency key (altGR+$ on a French keyboard, winXP) to insert the euro letter. When I want to send a message with the euro letter (same method as above to insert the euro symbol and the character coding for the message is ISO8859-15), I have a warning box telling me that my message contains characters not included in ISO8859-15 and the received message countains ? symbols instead of the euro character.

The headers of the message show these settings :
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-15; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Am I doing something wrong or is there a bug in the mailnews component with ISO8859-15 support ? I could not find anything in Bugzilla
